They just don’t make heartthrobs like they used to!
No offense to the Timothée Chalamets, Harry Styles, or Tom Hollands of the world, but in my day, a heartthrob was a genuine, certified HUNK. A real man’s man! Think lumberjack. Think mountain man. Think a full pelt of chest hair and probably a nice thick moustache too.

Basically, think Tom Selleck.
Everyone knows Tom Selleck, and be honest: everyone also has a huge crush on him.
While the young folks out there might know him as the totally dreamy Richard from Friends (let’s be real here for a second, by the way, and say that Monica definitely made the wrong choice. Love the guy, but who picks Chandler over Tom Selleck ?!), most of us OGs know and love him as Thomas Magnum on Magnum P.I.
Tom was born on January 29, 1945.
That means that this year, Tom is celebrating his 77th birthday!
It doesn’t seem possible that such a timeless hunk like Tom Selleck ages like the rest of us, but apparently, he does, and he does today .
Obviously, fans are celebrating the legend on social media, *as they should.*
“Happy birthday to Tom Selleck. He was offered the role of Indiana Jones but turned it down as it would have put the ‘Magnum P.I.’ crew out of work. A class act,” one fan tweeted .
Now that’s a movie I would’ve LOVED to see!
Happy birthday, Tom!
